qt 4.6 deb files used by scratchbox to “extras-development” so
anybody can easily have access to applications developed using qt4.6. I

until PR1.2 is out but I haven’t seen any actual reports of anything that
doesn’t work or works worst than the current qt4-maemo5 version.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
